Arconic Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2016 Results

January 31, 2017

On November 1, 2016, Alcoa Inc. successfully separated into two
standalone companies: Arconic Inc. (the new name for Alcoa Inc.) and
Alcoa Corporation. Arconic is a global leader in multi-materials
innovation, precision engineering and advanced manufacturing, mainly in
aerospace and transportation.

This is Arconic’s first quarter reporting earnings following the
separation. The numbers include one month of Alcoa Corporation for
fourth quarter 2016 and ten months of Alcoa Corporation for full-year
2016. The pre-separation historical results of the businesses that now
comprise Alcoa Corporation are presented as discontinued operations in
Arconic’s financial results for all periods.

4Q and Full Year 2016 Highlights

  • Revenue roughly flat year over year:

    • Fourth quarter – $3.0 billion (versus $3.0 billion in fourth
      quarter 2015)
    • Full year 2016 – $12.4 billion (versus $12.4 billion in full year
      2015)
  • Net loss attributable to Arconic:

    • Mainly due to special items related to the separation of Alcoa Inc.
    • Fourth quarter – $1.2 billion, or $2.88 per share (versus net loss
      of $0.7 billion in fourth quarter 2015)
    • Full year 2016 – $0.9 billion, or $2.28 per share (versus net loss
      of $0.3 billion in full year 2015)
  • Excluding special items, adjusted income from continuing operations:

    • Fourth quarter – $71 million, or $0.12 per share
    • Full year 2016 – $505 million, or $0.98 per share
  • Combined segment1 adjusted EBITDA up (up seven percent in
    the fourth quarter, up nine percent in full year 2016)
  • Margin expansion in every segment
  • Strong net savings of 2.5 percent of revenues (gross productivity
    savings $710 million; net savings $310 million)

________________________________________

Arconic Inc. (NYSE: ARNC) today reported fourth quarter and full-year
2016 results, the Company’s first quarter reporting earnings following
the separation of Alcoa Inc.

In the fourth quarter of 2016, the Company reported a net loss
attributable to Arconic of $1.2 billion, or $2.88 per share. As
previously indicated – most recently at Arconic’s Investor Day in
December 2016 – these results include $1.4 billion in special items,
including tax valuation allowance charges related primarily to the
separation of Alcoa Inc. as well as restructuring and other separation
costs.

Excluding special items, fourth quarter 2016 adjusted income from
continuing operations was $71 million, or $0.12 per share, driven by
strong productivity gains of $186 million across all segments, which
were partially offset by cost increases and unfavorable price and mix,
predominantly in aerospace.

Arconic recorded fourth quarter 2016 revenue of $3.0 billion, versus
$3.0 billion in the fourth quarter of 2015, as strong volume growth
across segments was offset by the Company’s ramp down from the North
American packaging business at its Tennessee operations (the “Tennessee
packaging ramp down”).

Fourth quarter consolidated adjusted EBITDA, excluding separation costs,
was $360 million. Combined segment adjusted EBITDA was $456 million, up
seven percent.

To further its de-leveraging program and strengthen its balance sheet,
in December 2016 Arconic completed the early redemption of its 5.55
percent Notes due 2017, in the aggregate principal amount of $750
million.

Klaus Kleinfeld, Arconic Chairman and CEO said, “In the fourth quarter
we completed the successful separation of Alcoa Inc., which has unlocked
substantial value for all shareholders. In the face of significant
market challenges, we continued to improve the businesses – we increased
adjusted EBITDA margins 100 basis points or more in each of our three
business segments, delivered strong net savings and systematically cut
overhead cost. We also strengthened our balance sheet, paid down $750
million of debt and ended the year with a strong cash balance of $1.9
billion.”

Kleinfeld continued, “In 2017 we are squarely focused on operational
improvements, margin expansion, and capital efficiency to drive
shareholder returns. We will continue to cut cost through productivity
and corporate overhead reduction. Beyond our stated targets, our
retained interest in Alcoa Corporation provides an additional lever for
value creation.”

Arconic ended fourth quarter 2016 with cash on hand of $1.9 billion.
Including the results of Alcoa Corporation up to the separation on
November 1, 2016, cash from operations was $665 million; cash
used for financing activities totaled $407 million; and cash used for
investing activities was $244 million. Free cash flow for the quarter
was $354 million.

4Q Segment Performance (Excluding Impact of Discontinued Operations)

Engineered Products and Solutions (EPS)

EPS reported revenue of $1.4 billion, flat year over year, record fourth
quarter ATOI of $138 million, up $15 million, or 12 percent, year over
year, adjusted EBITDA of $265 million, up nine percent year over year,
and an adjusted EBITDA margin of 18.8 percent in the fourth quarter of
2016, up from 17.3 percent in the fourth quarter of 2015. Productivity
improvements and the positive contribution from the RTI acquisition were
somewhat offset by unfavorable price and product mix, cost headwinds and
investments in growth projects.

Global Rolled Products (GRP)

GRP reported revenue of $1.1 billion, a decrease of 9 percent year over
year, ATOI of $45 million, compared to $49 million in the fourth quarter
2015, adjusted EBITDA of $116 million, flat year over year, adjusted
EBITDA margin of 10.8 percent, up 100 basis points year over year, and
adjusted EBITDA per metric ton of $329, up 8 percent (from $306) year
over year due to the Tennessee packaging ramp down and other upgrades in
product mix. Both ATOI and adjusted EBITDA were driven by productivity
and growth in automotive volume and were offset by a combination of the
following: cost increases, lower volume in the North America heavy duty
truck market, aerospace destocking and the unfavorable impact of
currency exchange rates. ATOI also reflects the impact of higher U.S.
taxes due to increased income in the United States. The quarter also set
a record for automotive sheet shipments, which were up 56 percent year
over year.

Transportation and Construction Solutions (TCS)

TCS delivered revenue of $456 million, an increase of 3 percent year
over year, record fourth quarter ATOI of $44 million, up $4 million, or
10 percent, year over year, adjusted EBITDA of $75 million, up 15
percent year over year, and a fourth quarter record adjusted EBITDA
margin of 16.4 percent; the prior record of 14.6 percent was set in the
fourth quarter of 2015. Strong productivity gains and growth in the
building and construction business more than offset cost increases and
continued softness in the North American heavy duty truck market.

Full Year 2016 Performance (Excluding Impact of Discontinued
Operations)

In 2016, Arconic reported a net loss attributable to Arconic of $0.9
billion, or $2.28 per share. Excluding the impact of special items –
primarily due to charges and costs associated with the separation of
Alcoa Inc. – the Company reported 2016 adjusted income from continuing
operations of $505 million, or $0.98 per share.

Revenue in 2016 was $12.4 billion, essentially flat year over year, as
the positive impact of acquisitions and higher volumes for aerospace and
automotive markets were offset by the Tennessee packaging ramp down and
the negative impact from metal pricing, foreign currency exchange rate
fluctuations, and price and product mix.

Full year 2016 combined segment adjusted EBITDA was $2.1 billion, up
nine percent year over year, with the Company recording a margin
expansion of 140 basis points across all business segments. Full year
2016 consolidated adjusted EBITDA, excluding separation costs, was $1.7
billion.

Arconic ended the year with debt of $8.1 billion and cash on hand of
$1.9 billion. Company employees achieved $710 million in gross
productivity savings, with net savings of $310 million.

Segment performance in 2016 included the following:

  • EPS revenue of $5.7 billion, up seven percent year over year, ATOI of
    $642 million, up eight percent year over year, adjusted EBITDA of $1.2
    billion, up eight percent year over year and an adjusted EBITDA margin
    of 20.9 percent.
  • GRP revenue of $4.9 billion, down seven percent year over year, ATOI
    of $269 million, up 20 percent year over year, adjusted EBITDA of $577
    million, up 13 percent year over year, and adjusted EBITDA of $364 per
    metric ton.
  • TCS revenue of $1.8 billion, down four percent year over year, ATOI of
    $176 million, up six percent year over year, EBITDA of $291 million,
    up seven percent year over year, and an adjusted EBITDA margin of 16.1
    percent.

Looking Ahead: 2017

2

The focus on margin and return on net assets (RONA) improvement as well
as cost cutting will continue in 2017. The Company expects to cut $45
million in corporate overhead, decreasing such overhead as a percentage
of revenue from 1.5 percent as our run rate at the end of 2016 to 1.1
percent in 2017, reflecting the Company’s accelerated efforts to drive
out cost.

Beginning in the first quarter of 2017, Arconic’s segment reporting
metric will change from ATOI to adjusted EBITDA.

First Quarter 2017 Guidance

Arconic’s outlook for the first quarter of 2017 is as follows:

  • Revenue of $2.8 billion to $3.0 billion, including the impact of the
    Tennessee packaging ramp down
  • Adjusted EBITDA of $420 million to $450 million
  • Share count of 460 million

Full Year 2017 Guidance

Arconic affirmed its targets for full year 2017:

  • Revenue of $11.8 to $12.4 billion, including $400 million of negative
    impact from the Tennessee packaging ramp down
  • Adjusted EBITDA margin of approximately 15 percent
  • Free cash flow of $350 million or more
  • $1 billion of debt reduction
  • RONA of approximately 9 percent, with a target of 11-12 percent in 2019
  • Adjusted net income, excluding special items, of $1.10 to $1.20 per
    share, based on share count of 470 million, due to mandatory
    convertible preferred shares converting to common stock in October 2017

The Company is focused on margin expansion and RONA improvement across
all segments.

Both 2017 full year and first quarter guidance exclude any potential
future monetization of the Company’s 19.9 percent retained interest
(36,311,767 shares of common stock) in Alcoa Corporation. Based on the
closing price of Alcoa Corporation stock on January 26, 2017, the market
value of the retained shares was approximately $1.3 billion. On January
18, 2017, Alcoa Corporation filed a registration statement on Form S-1
to register Arconic’s retained interest. As communicated during
Arconic’s Investor Day in December 2016, Arconic plans to pursue a
responsible monetization of the retained shares with timing based on
market conditions, and expects to use the net proceeds for debt pay-down
and/or share repurchases.

2 Arconic has not provided a reconciliation of the
forward-looking financial measures of adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA
margin, Return on Net Assets, adjusted net income, and Free Cash Flow to
the most directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America (GAAP) because Arconic is unable to quantify certain amounts
that would be required to be included in the GAAP measure without
unreasonable efforts, and Arconic believes such reconciliations would
imply a degree of precision that would be confusing or misleading to
investors. In particular, reconciliations of these forward-looking
non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP
measures are not available without unreasonable efforts due to the
variability and complexity with respect to the charges and other
components excluded from these non-GAAP measures, such as the effects of
foreign currency movements, equity income, gains or losses on sales of
assets, taxes and any future restructuring or impairment charges. These
reconciling items are in addition to the inherent variability already
included in the GAAP measures, which includes, but is not limited to,
price/mix and volume.

(1) On November 1, 2016, the former Alcoa Inc. was separated into two
standalone, publicly-traded companies, Arconic and Alcoa
Corporation, by means of a pro rata distribution of 80.1 percent of
the outstanding common stock of Alcoa Corporation to Alcoa Inc.
shareholders. Arconic retained 19.9% of the Alcoa Corporation common
stock and has reflected its investment as a noncurrent asset,
Investment in Alcoa Corporation common stock, on the December 31,
2016 Consolidated Balance Sheet. The assets and liabilities of Alcoa
Corporation have been reflected as assets and liabilities of
discontinued operations on the December 31, 2015 Consolidated
Balance Sheet.
 
(2) In the first quarter of 2016, Arconic adopted changes issued by the
Financial Accounting Standards Board to the presentation of debt
issuance costs, which require such costs to be classified as a
direct deduction from the carrying value of the related debt
liability on an entity’s balance sheet. As such, all debt issuance
costs were classified as a contra liability in the Long-term debt,
less amount due within one year line item on the December 31, 2016
Consolidated Balance Sheet. These changes are required to be applied
on a retrospective basis; therefore, the December 31, 2015
Consolidated Balance Sheet was updated to conform to the December
31, 2016 presentation. As a result, $51 of debt issuance costs
(previously reported in Other noncurrent assets) were reclassified
to the Long-term debt, less amount due within one year line item on
the December 31, 2015 Consolidated Balance Sheet.
 
(3) In August 2016, Arconic’s Board of Directors approved the retirement
of all common shares held in treasury (76 million). As a result,
Common stock and Additional capital were decreased by $76 and $2,563
to reflect the retirement of the treasury shares.
 
(4) In October 2016, shareholders approved a 1-for-3 reverse stock split
of Arconic’s outstanding and authorized shares of common stock. The
par value of Arconic’s common stock remains unchanged at $1 per
share. The Common stock and Additional capital balances in the
December 2016 Consolidated Balance Sheet reflect a decrease and
increase, respectively, of $877.

(1) On November 1, 2016, Alcoa Inc. completed its separation into two
standalone, publicly-traded companies. Arconic includes the former
Alcoa Inc. segments: Engineered Products and Solutions,
Transportation and Construction Solutions, and Global Rolled
Products, except for the Warrick, IN rolling operations and the
equity interest in the rolling mill at the joint venture in Saudi
Arabia which both became part of Alcoa Corporation. The Global
Rolled Products segment information has been updated to exclude the
Warrick, IN rolling operations and the equity interest in the
rolling mill at the joint venture in Saudi Arabia.
 
(2) Total segment ATOI is the summation of the respective ATOI of
Arconic’s three reportable segments.
 
(3) The reconciliation of total segment ATOI to consolidated net income
(loss) attributable to Arconic has been updated for all periods
presented to exclude the results of operations for Alcoa Corporation
which have been reflected as discontinued operations for all periods
presented.
 
(4) Other, both for the quarter ended December 31, 2016 and for the year

related to the November 1, 2016 separation ($1,267) and a net charge
for the remeasurement of certain deferred tax assets due to tax rate
and tax law changes ($51).

Net (loss) income attributable to Arconic – as adjusted is a
non-GAAP financial measure. Management believes that this measure
is meaningful to investors because management reviews the
operating results of Arconic excluding the impacts of
restructuring and other charges, discrete tax items, and other
special items (collectively, “special items”). There can be no
assurances that additional special items will not occur in future
periods. To compensate for this limitation, management believes
that it is appropriate to consider both Net (loss) income
attributable to Arconic determined under GAAP as well as Net
income (loss) attributable to Arconic – as adjusted.

 
(1)   On November 1, 2016, the former Alcoa Inc. was separated into two
standalone, publicly-traded companies, Arconic and Alcoa
Corporation, by means of a pro rata distribution of 80.1 percent of
the outstanding common stock of Alcoa Corporation to Alcoa Inc.
shareholders. Accordingly, the results of operations of Alcoa
Corporation have been reflected as discontinued operations for all
periods presented.
 
(2) In the second quarter of 2016, management changed the manner in
which special items are presented in Arconic’s reconciliation of
Adjusted Income. This change resulted in special items being
presented on a pretax basis and the related tax and noncontrolling
interest’s impacts on special items being aggregated into separate
respective line items. The special items for the quarter and year
ended December 31, 2015 were updated to conform to the current
period presentation.
 
(3) Discrete tax items include the following:

for the quarter ended December 31, 2015, a charge for valuation
allowances related to certain deferred tax assets in the U.S. and
Iceland ($190) and a net benefit for a number of small items ($7);

for the quarter ended December 31, 2016, a charge for valuation
allowances related to the November 1, 2016 separation (see Note 1
above) ($1,267), a net charge for the remeasurement of certain
deferred tax assets due to tax rate and tax law changes ($51), a net
benefit for valuation allowances not associated with the separation
($29), and a net benefit for a number of small items ($17);

for the year ended December 31, 2015, a charge for valuation
allowances related to certain deferred tax assets in the U.S. and
Iceland ($190), a net charge for other valuation allowances and for
a number of small items ($26); and

for the year ended December 31, 2016, a charge for valuation
allowances related to the November 1, 2016 separation (see Note 1
above) ($1,267), a net charge for the remeasurement of certain
deferred tax assets due to tax rate and tax law changes ($51), a net
benefit for valuation allowances not associated with the separation
($18), and a net benefit for a number of small items ($20).
 
(4) Other special items include the following:

for the quarter ended December 31, 2015, a favorable tax impact
related to the interim period treatment of operational losses in
certain foreign jurisdictions for which no tax benefit was
recognized ($69), an unfavorable tax impact resulting from the
difference between Arconic’s consolidated estimated annual effective
tax rate and the statutory rates applicable to special items ($37),
an impairment of goodwill related to the soft alloy extrusions
business in Brazil ($25), and costs associated with the planned
separation of Alcoa ($12);

for the quarter ended December 31, 2016, costs associated with the
planned separation of Alcoa ($87), a favorable adjustment to the
contingent earn-out liability related to the November 2014
acquisition of Firth Rixson ($56), a favorable tax benefit related
to the currency impacts of a distribution of previously taxed income
($49), an unfavorable tax impact related to the interim period
treatment of operational losses in certain foreign jurisdictions for
which no tax benefit was recognized ($37), and a favorable tax
impact resulting from the difference between Arconic’s consolidated
estimated annual effective tax rate and the statutory rates
applicable to special items ($17);

for the year ended December 31, 2015, costs associated with the
acquisitions of RTI International Metals and TITAL ($28), an
impairment of goodwill related to the soft alloy extrusions business
in Brazil ($25), costs associated with the planned separation of
Alcoa ($24), a gain on the sale of land ($19), and a gain on the
sale of an equity investment in a China rolling mill ($19); and

for the year ended December 31, 2016, costs associated with the
planned separation of Alcoa ($205), unfavorable tax costs associated
with the redemption of company-owned life insurance policies ($100),
a favorable adjustment to the contingent earn-out liability and a
post-closing adjustment both of which related to the November 2014
acquisition of Firth Rixson ($76), a favorable tax benefit related
to the currency impacts of a distribution of previously taxed income
($49), and unfavorable tax costs associated with the sale of a US
subsidiary with book goodwill ($16).
 
(5) The tax impact on special items is based on the applicable statutory
rates whereby the difference between such rates and Arconic’s
consolidated estimated annual effective tax rate is itself a special
item (see footnote 2 above). The noncontrolling interest’s impact on
special items represents Arconic’s partners’ share of certain
special items.
 
(6) At a special meeting of Arconic common shareholders held on October
5, 2016, shareholders approved a 1-for-3 reverse stock split of
Arconic’s outstanding and authorized shares of common stock which
became effective on October 6, 2016. All share and per share data
for all periods presented have been updated to reflect the reverse
stock split.
 
The average number of shares applicable to diluted EPS for Net
(loss) income attributable to Arconic common shareholders excludes
certain share equivalents as their effect was anti-dilutive (see
footnote 4 to the Statement of Consolidated Operations). However,
certain of these share equivalents may become dilutive in the EPS
calculation applicable to Net income attributable to Arconic common
shareholders – as adjusted due to a larger and/or positive
numerator. Specifically:

for the quarter ended December 31, 2015, share equivalents
associated with outstanding employee stock options and awards were
dilutive based on Net income attributable to Arconic common
shareholders – as adjusted, resulting in a diluted average number of
shares of 441,459,378;

for the quarter ended December 31, 2016, share equivalents
associated with outstanding employee stock options and awards were
dilutive based on Net income attributable to Arconic common
shareholders – as adjusted, resulting in a diluted average number of
shares of 443,779,820;

for the year ended December 31, 2015, share equivalents associated
with employee stock options and awards were dilutive based on Net
income attributable to Arconic common shareholders – as adjusted,
resulting in a diluted average number of shares of 424,628,747; and

for the year ended December 31, 2016, share equivalents associated
with both outstanding employee stock options and awards and
convertible notes related to the acquisition of RTI International
Metals were dilutive based on Net income attributable to Arconic
common shareholders – as adjusted, resulting in a diluted average
number of shares of 453,118,372 (after-tax interest expense of $9
needs to be added back to the numerator since the convertible notes
were dilutive).

Operational Tax Rate is a non-GAAP financial measure. Management
believes that this measure is meaningful to investors because
management reviews the operating results of Arconic excluding the
impacts of restructuring and other charges, discrete tax items, and
other special items (collectively, “special items”). There can be no
assurances that additional special items will not occur in future
periods. To compensate for this limitation, management believes that
it is appropriate to consider both the Effective Tax Rate determined
under GAAP as well as the Operational Tax Rate.

to Sales minus the following items: Cost of goods sold; Selling,
general administrative, and other expenses; Research and development
expenses; and Provision for depreciation and amortization. Adjusted
EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. Management believes that
this measure is meaningful to investors because Adjusted EBITDA
provides additional information with respect to Arconic’s operating
performance and the Company’s ability to meet its financial
obligations. The Adjusted EBITDA presented may not be comparable to
similarly titled measures of other companies.

Adjusted EBITDA Margin 14.0 % 15.5 % 15.2 % 16.6 %
 
 
Arconic’s definition of Adjusted EBITDA (Earnings before interest,
taxes, depreciation, and amortization) is net margin plus an
add-back for depreciation and amortization. Net margin is equivalent
to Sales minus the following items: Cost of goods sold; Selling,
general administrative, and other expenses; Research and development
expenses; and Provision for depreciation and amortization. The Other
line in the table above includes gains/losses on asset sales and
other nonoperating items. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial
measure. Management believes that this measure is meaningful to
investors because Adjusted EBITDA provides additional information
with respect to Arconic’s operating performance and the Company’s
ability to meet its financial obligations. The Adjusted EBITDA
presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of
other companies.
 
(1)   Excludes the Warrick, IN rolling operations and the equity interest
in the rolling mill at the joint venture in Saudi Arabia, both of
which were previously part of the Global Rolled Products segment but
became part of Alcoa Corporation effective November 1, 2016.
 
(2) On November 1, 2016, the former Alcoa Inc. was separated into two
standalone, publicly-traded companies, Arconic and Alcoa
Corporation, by means of a pro rata distribution of 80.1 percent of
the outstanding common stock of Alcoa Corporation to Alcoa Inc.
shareholders. Accordingly, the results of operations of Alcoa
Corporation have been reflected as discontinued operations for all
periods presented.
 
(3) Other, both for the quarter ended December 31, 2016 and for the year
ended December 31, 2016, include a charge for valuation allowances
related to the November 1, 2016 separation ($1,267) and a net charge
for the remeasurement of certain deferred tax assets due to tax rate
and tax law changes ($51).

Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP financial measure. Management
believes that this measure is meaningful to investors because
management reviews cash flows generated from operations after
taking into consideration capital expenditures due to the fact
that these expenditures are considered necessary to maintain and
expand Arconic’s asset base and are expected to generate future
cash flows from operations. It is important to note that Free Cash
Flow does not represent the residual cash flow available for
discretionary expenditures since other non-discretionary
expenditures, such as mandatory debt service requirements, are not
deducted from the measure.

Net debt $ 7,465 $ 7,206 $ 6,221
 
 

Net debt is a non-GAAP financial measure. Management believes that
this measure is meaningful to investors because management
assesses Arconic’s leverage position after factoring in available
cash that could be used to repay outstanding debt.

Corporation, by means of a pro rata distribution of 80.1 percent of
the outstanding common stock of Alcoa Corporation to Alcoa Inc.

Corporation have been reflected as assets and liabilities of
discontinued operations at December 31, 2015 and September 30, 2016
and therefore are not included in this table.

Return on Net Assets

Net income attributable to Arconic – as adjusted $ 505
 
Net Assets:
Add: Receivable from customers, less allowances $ 974
Add: Deferred purchase price receivable(3) 83
Add: Inventories 2,253

Working Capital 1,584
Properties, plants and equipment, net   5,494  
Net Assets – total $ 7,078
 
RONA 7.1 %
 
 
Return on Net Assets (RONA) is a non-GAAP financial measure. RONA is
calculated as adjusted net income divided by working capital and net
PP&E. Management believes that this measure is meaningful to
investors as RONA helps management and investors determine the
percentage net income the company is generating from its assets.
This ratio tells how effectively and efficiently the company is
using its assets to generate earnings.

(3) The Deferred purchase price receivable relates to an arrangement to
sell certain customer receivables to several financial institutions
on a recurring basis. Arconic is adding back the receivable for the
purposes of the Working Capital calculation.
